Kaine yanks abstinence funding

Governor Tim Kaine cut $275,000 from a matching grant for a federal program that funded abstinence-only sex-ed teaching, according to a story in yesterday's Washington Post. Kaine cited studies that showed the programs didn't work. The issue has been a live one in Charlottesville since last year when controversy erupted over funding and again in April of this year when abstinence supporters held an info session.
